Santiago - Chile

Catalina Claro, Chilean pianist and composer, creates music born of silence, where piano and voice open up intimate, contemplative spaces. Classically trained, she has collaborated with La Fura dels Baus, Cirque du Soleil, and published In Lakech (1999) and Canto por si acaso (2008), fusing world music and Mediterranean influences.
